ITEM 1.  BUSINESS.

   Enron Capital Trust II (the "Trust") is a statutory business
trust created under the Delaware Business Trust Act, as amended
(the "Trust Act"), pursuant to an amended and restated
declaration of trust (the "Declaration") and the filing of a
certificate of trust with the Secretary of State of the State of
Delaware.  On January 16, 1997, the Trust completed its initial
public offering of the Trust Preferred Securities described
below, as a result of which the Trust's sole assets are 6,186,000
8 1/8% Partnership Preferred Securities ($25 liquidation amount
per security) representing an 85% limited partnership interest in
Enron Preferred Funding II, L.P., a Delaware limited partnership
(the "Partnership").  Ownership of the assets of the Trust is
evidenced by an aggregate of 6,000,000 8 1/8% Trust Preferred
Securities (the "Trust Preferred Securities"), which are listed
and traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "ENE
PrR", and 186,000 Trust Common Securities (the "Trust Common
Securities," and, together with the Trust Preferred Securities,
the "Trust Securities"), all of which are owned by Enron Corp.,
an Oregon corporation ("Enron").  The Trust makes distributions
on the Trust Securities to the extent it receives distributions
from the Partnership on the Partnership Preferred Securities.
Payments on the Partnership Preferred Securities represent the
sole source of cash for the Trust.  Distributions on the Trust
Securities are guaranteed by Enron, but only to the extent that
the Trust has available funds to pay such distributions.  The
Trust was created for the sole purpose of issuing the Trust
Securities, investing the proceeds of such issuance in the
Partnership Preferred Securities and engaging in only those other
activities necessary or incidental thereto.  The Trust Securities
are subject to redemption at any time on or after March 31, 2002
or earlier in the event of certain tax law changes or other
events.

   The general partner of the Partnership is Enron, which owns a
15% general partnership interest in the Partnership.  Since
completion of the offering of the Trust Preferred Securities on
January 16, 1997, the assets of the Partnership have been
invested primarily in a $136,450,000 principal amount 7.75%
Subordinated Debenture due 2016, Series II of Enron (the "Enron
Debenture") and $21,836,000 principal amount 7.75% Debentures due
2016, Series II, of each of Enron Capital & Trade Resources Corp.
and Enron Pipeline Company (the "Subsidiary Debentures" and,
together with the Enron Debenture, the "Debentures"), each of
which is a wholly owned subsidiary of Enron. The obligations
under the Subsidiary Debentures are guaranteed by Enron.  The
respective issuers of the Debentures have certain rights to elect
to defer any payments of principal and interest on the Debentures
for up to five years at a time. In addition to the Debentures,
the Partnership owns an aggregate of approximately $1,900,000 in
short-term, investment grade debt securities (the "Eligible Debt
Securities").  Under certain circumstances, upon repayment of one
or more of the Debentures, the assets of the Partnership may be
reinvested in one or more debt securities of Enron or its
subsidiaries.  Payments of interest and principal on the Enron
Debenture and the Subsidiary Debentures (or the guarantees
thereof) and the Eligible Debt Securities are the sole source of
revenue for the Partnership.  The Partnership pays distributions
to the Trust as holder of the Partnership Preferred Securities
when and if Enron, as the general partner, determines to do so,
although Enron has no obligation to do so.

   For more information concerning the Trust, the Partnership and
the rights of the holders of the Trust Securities, see the
Amended and Restated Declaration of Trust relating to the Trust,
the Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership
relating to the Partnership, the Indentures relating to each of
the Debentures and the Guarantee Agreements of Enron with
respect to the Trust Preferred Securities, the Partnership
Preferred Securities and the Subsidiary Debentures, each of which
is included as an exhibit to this Form 10-K.

   Enron Corp., an Oregon corporation, is an energy and
communications company with headquarters in Houston, Texas.  The
common stock of Enron is traded on the New York Stock Exchange

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR THE REGISTRANT'S COMMON EQUITY AND RELATED
STOCKHOLDER MATTERS.

   The Trust Preferred Securities are listed on the New York
Stock Exchange ("NYSE") under the symbol "ENE PrR."  From
January 16, 1997 through December 31, 1999, the high and low
prices of the Trust Preferred Securities on the NYSE were

approximate number of holders of record of the Trust Preferred
Securities was 70.  All of the Trust Common Securities are
held by Enron.

   On March 31, 1997, the Trust made the first scheduled
regular quarterly distribution on the Trust Preferred Securities
of $0.4232 per Trust Preferred Security payable, such initial
distribution accruing from January 16, 1997, the date of original
issuance of the Trust Preferred Securities.  During 1999 and
1998, the Trust paid quarterly distributions on the Trust
Preferred Securities of $0.5078 per quarter, and the Trust
expects to continue to pay distributions on the Trust Preferred
Securities of $0.5078 per quarter to the extent the Trust has
funds available for the payment of such distributions.

   The Trust issued an aggregate of 186,000 Trust Common
Securities to Enron on January 16, 1997 in a transaction exempt
from the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to Section 4(2) thereof.

ITEM 7.  MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL
CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS.

   On January 16, 1997, the Trust issued $150 million of Trust
Preferred Securities to the public.  The Trust used the
proceeds from the offering combined with $4.7 million of proceeds
from the issuance of Trust Common Securities to Enron to acquire
Partnership Preferred Securities of the Partnership.  The proceeds
received by the Partnership were invested primarily in 20-year
debentures of Enron and two wholly-owned subsidiaries of Enron.

   During 1999, 1998 and 1997, holders of the 6,000,000 Trust
Preferred Securities were paid quarterly cash distributions
totaling $12.2 million, $12.2 million and $11.7 million,
respectively.  During 1999, 1998 and 1997, holders of the 186,000

          REPORT OF INDEPENDENT PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS



To the Shareowners of Enron Capital Trust II:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Enron
Capital Trust II (a Delaware statutory business trust) as of
December 31, 1999 and 1998, and the related statements of
income, cash flows and changes in shareowners' equity for
the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and the period from
inception (January 13, 1997) through December 31, 1997.
These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Enron Capital Trust II's management. Our responsibility is
to express an opinion on these financial statements based on
our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing
standards generally accepted in the United States.  Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.  An
audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used
and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation.  We
believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our
opinion.

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Enron Capital Trust II as of December 31, 1999
and 1998, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years ended December 31, 1999, 1998 and the
period from inception (January 13, 1997) through December
31, 1997, in conformity with accounting principles generally
accepted in the United States.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. DESCRIPTION OF THE TRUST

   Enron Capital Trust II (the "Trust") is a statutory
business trust created under the Delaware Business Trust
Act.  Ownership of the assets of the Trust is evidenced by
an aggregate of 6,000,000 8.125% Trust Preferred Securities
(the "Trust Preferred Securities"), which are listed and
traded on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol "ENE
PrR", and 186,000 Trust Common Securities (the "Trust Common
Securities" and, together with the Trust Preferred
Securities, the "Trust Securities"), all of which are owned
by Enron Corp. ("Enron").  The Trust's sole assets are
6,186,000 8.125% Partnership Preferred Securities ($25
liquidation amount per security) representing an 85% limited
partnership interest in Enron Preferred Funding II, L.P.
(the "Partnership").  The Trust and the Partnership are
consolidated subsidiaries of Enron for financial accounting
purposes.  The Trust makes distributions on the Trust
Securities to the extent it receives distributions from the
Partnership on the Partnership Preferred Securities, which
represents the sole source of cash for the Trust. Enron is
obligated to pay all fees and expenses of the Trust and the
Partnership.

   The Trust was created for the sole purpose of issuing the
Trust Securities, investing the proceeds of such issuance in
the Partnership Preferred Securities and engaging in only
those other activities necessary or incidental thereto.

   Of the four trustees for the Trust, two are employees or
officers of Enron or its affiliates ("the Regular
Trustees"), one is a financial institution that acts as
indenture trustee for purposes of compliance with the Trust
provisions and one is an entity that maintains its principal
place of business in Delaware for the purposes of compliance
with the Business Trust Act.  The Regular Trustees are
authorized and directed to conduct the affairs of and to
operate the Trust.  Enron, at its discretion as holder of
the Trust Common Securities, may appoint, remove or replace
the trustees.

   In the event of liquidation of the Trust, holders are
entitled to receive $25 per Trust Preferred Security plus
any accrued and unpaid distributions (together the "Trust
Liquidation Distribution"), unless Partnership Preferred
Securities are distributed to such holders.  If the Trust
has insufficient assets to pay the Trust Liquidation
Distribution in full, then the holders of the Trust
Preferred Securities will receive distributions on a pro
rata basis.  The holders of the Trust Common Securities are
entitled to receive distributions on liquidation pro rata
with the holders of the Trust Preferred Securities, except
that under certain events of default the holders of the
Trust Preferred Securities will have preference over the
holders of the Trust Common Securities with respect to
payments upon liquidation of the Trust.

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE PARTNERSHIP

   The general partner of the Partnership is Enron, which
owns a 15% general partnership interest in the Partnership.
Since completion of the offering of the Trust Preferred
Securities on January 16, 1997, the assets of the
Partnership have been invested primarily in a $136,450,000
principal amount 7.75% Subordinated Debenture, Series II,
due 2016 of Enron (the "Enron Debenture") and $21,836,000
principal amount 7.75% Debentures, Series II, due 2016 (the
"Subsidiary Debentures" and, together with the Enron
Debenture, the "Debentures"), of each of Enron Capital &
Trade Resources Corp. and Enron Pipeline Company, each of
which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Enron.  The
obligations under the Subsidiary Debentures are guaranteed
by Enron.  The respective issuers of the Debentures have
certain rights to elect to defer any payments of principal
and interest on the Debentures for up to five years at a
time.  In addition to the Debentures, the Partnership owns
an aggregate of approximately $1,900,000 in short-term,
investment grade debt securities (the "Eligible Debt
Securities") as of December 31, 1999 and 1998.  Under
certain circumstances, upon repayment of one or more of the
Debentures, the assets of the Partnership may be reinvested
in one or more debt securities of Enron or its subsidiaries.
Payments of interest on the Debentures (or the guarantees
thereof) and the Eligible Debt Securities are the sole
source of revenue for the Partnership.  The Partnership pays
distributions to the Trust as holder of the Partnership
Preferred Securities when and if Enron, as the general
partner, determines to do so.

3. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   Principles of Consolidation.  The Trust, as the limited
partner of the Partnership, accounts for its investment in
the Partnership under the equity method.

   Use of Estimates.  The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles requires management to make estimates and
assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and
liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities
at the date of the financial statements and the reported
amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting
period.  Actual results could differ from those estimates.

4. INCOME TAXES

   The Trust is classified for U.S. federal income tax
purposes as a grantor trust.  For U.S. federal income tax
purposes, the Trust is a non-taxable entity and each holder
of Trust Preferred Securities and Trust Common Securities is
considered the owner of an individual interest in the
Partnership Preferred Securities held by the Trust, and each
holder is required to include in its gross income its
distributive share of income attributable to the
Partnership, which generally is equal to such holder's
allocable share of amounts accrued on the Partnership
Preferred Securities.  Accordingly, no recognition has been
given to income taxes in the accompanying financial
statements.

5. DISTRIBUTIONS

   Holders of the Trust Securities are entitled to receive
quarterly cash distributions at an annual rate of 8.125%.
Distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities are
guaranteed by Enron, but only to the extent that the Trust
has available funds to pay such distributions.  Any
distributions not paid on the scheduled payment date will
accumulate and compound quarterly at a rate per annum equal
to 8.125%.

   Neither the Trust Preferred Securities nor the
Partnership Preferred Securities have any scheduled maturity
but are subject to redemption at any time, upon not less
than 30 nor more than 60 days notice, on or after March 31,
2002 or earlier in the event of certain tax law changes or
other events.

These financial statements are the responsibility of the
Enron Preferred Funding II, L.P.'s management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing

standards require that we plan and perform the audit to
obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An audit
includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the

In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above
present fairly, in all material respects, the financial

from the issuance of the Partnership Preferred Securities and
general partner contributions of $27.3 million to invest
primarily in 20-year debentures of Enron and two wholly-owned
subsidiaries of Enron (the "Debentures"). In addition to the
Debentures, the Partnership owns an aggregate of approximately
$1.9 million in short-term, investment grade debt securities as
of December 31, 1999 and 1998. Interest and principal payments
related to the Debentures issued by Enron's subsidiaries have
been guaranteed, on a subordinated basis, by Enron.

   The Partnership Preferred Securities, which have no scheduled
maturity date, are redeemable at the option of Enron, upon notice
and in whole or in part, on or after March 31, 2002 or ealier in
the event of certain tax law changes or other events, at $25 per
Partnership Preferred Security plus any accrued unpaid
distributions.

   In the event of liquidation of the Partnership, holders of the
Partnership Preferred Securities are entitled to receive $25 per
Partnership Preferred Security plus any accrued and unpaid
distributions, before any distribution is made to Enron as
general partner.

2.   SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

   Revenue Recognition.  Interest income on the Debentures is
recorded on the accompanying Income Statement when due from Enron
and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

   Cash and Cash Equivalents.  The Partnership considers all
highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three
months or less to be cash equivalents.

   Use of Estimates.  The preparation of financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires
management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the
reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses
during the reporting period.  Actual results could differ from
those estimates.

3.   ADMINISTRATION OF THE PARTNERSHIP

   The Partnership is managed by Enron and exists for the sole
purpose of (i) issuing its partnership interests, (ii) investing
the proceeds thereof in Debentures, and to a lesser extent,
certain short-term investments and (iii) engaging in only those
other activities necessary or incidental thereto.  To the extent
that aggregate payments to the Partnership on the Debentures and
investments exceed distributions payable with respect to the
Partnership Preferred Securities, the Partnership may at times
have excess funds which shall be allocated to and may, in Enron's
sole discretion, be distributed to Enron. Enron is obligated to
pay all fees and expenses of the Trust and the Partnership.

4.   INCOME TAXES

   The Partnership is classified for U.S. federal income tax
purposes as a limited partnership. The profit or loss of the
Partnership for federal income tax purposes is included in the
income tax returns of the partners.  Accordingly, no recognition
has been given to income taxes in the accompanying financial
statements.

5.   DISTRIBUTIONS

   Holders of Partnership Preferred Securities are entitled to
receive cumulative cash distributions, if, as and when declared
by Enron in its sole discretion out of assets of the Partnership
legally available for payment.  The distributions payable on each
Partnership Preferred Security will be fixed at a rate per annum
of 8.125% of the stated liquidation preference of $25 per
Partnership Preferred Security.  Distributions on the Partnership
Preferred Securities are guaranteed by Enron to the extent that
the Partnership has available funds to pay such distributions.
Distributions not paid on the scheduled payment date will
accumulate and compound quarterly at the rate per annum equal to
8.125%.

6.   DEBENTURE RECEIVABLE FROM AFFILIATES

   The Debentures (due 2016), bear interest at 7.75% per annum
and are guaranteed by Enron (see Note 1).  Of the Debentures
purchased, $136.5 million are obligations of Enron,
$21.8 million are obligations of an affiliate,
Enron Capital & Trade Resources Corp., and another $21.8 million
are obligations of another affiliate, Enron Pipeline Company. The
Debentures contain redemption provisions that correspond to those
applicable to the Partnership Preferred Securities.  As of
December 31, 1999 and 1998, based on the discounted present value
of cash flows, the estimated fair value of the Debentures was
$182.3 million and $193.5 million, respectively.  Judgment is
necessarily required in interpreting market data and the use of
different market assumptions or estimation methodologies may
affect the estimated fair value amounts.
